Jon and I worked on a project together where we needed to build a robust mobile web application for college students in roughly 12 weeks. Jon was a pleasure to work with -- he's an incredibly skilled developer, and was actually writing the book on jQuery Mobile while building the application. Jon is also a highly reliable team member who collaborated well and helped us meet challenging deadlines. But Jon is also an extremely nice guy, and I always enjoyed our conversations, whether about technology or tea. I wish Jon the very best and highly recommend him for other projects.

Jon is a very talented engineering lead with an impressive background in web technologies. He has been instrumental in the development of key features in the Ninja Authoring tool. His work on the timeline both as an engineer and as a mentor to junior engineers was excellent.
Jon is also very flexible. He started work on the publishing system for Ninja and when we needed him to move to the timeline mid feature he jumped over with grace and professionalism and quickly made a major impact on the feature.
Beyond his technical skill Jon is also a great person to interact with. Life on the Ninja team was a very hard mix of long hours and aggressive deadlines and having Jon around helped make this environment fun.
Jon will make an excellent addition to any technology company who needs a brilliant engineer with leadership and mentoring skills.
